to Europeans who render themselves amenable to prosecution. We observe that a suggestion has been made by a correspondout of the Supreme Court and Consular Gazette, which, if it were practi- cable, would be an admirable step to- warda the desired result. He says:-
as very anxious that you should ad- vocate in your indiuential paper the expedi ency at aniae fatare time of all foreigners in China being made amenable to one law. I would propose the Code Napoleon as the most comprobensive and complota: first that it should be administered at every port by an official of the rank of
Taoutai, in open
Bh
Gout, to be held between the hours of 10 and 4, with a Consular Officer as ÁBB6830F eccondly, that the finding er verdict should be open to appeal by the Corenlar Oficer to a higher Court at the Provincial Capital, where a resident officer, or Consul-call him
"will"
should be what you
be stationed and lie that an appeal should from this Court, on the notion of the resident official, to the High Authorities at
Pekin. The several Tacutais would, it is of course supposed, Pelin undergo some preliminary training at before being nominated to an appointment. Though causes of cases in which foreigners aluno were concerned, were still to be tried at Shanglini, the main difficulties of exterritorial jurisdiction would vanish; the necessity of expensive Consular establish ments at the various parts would cease; the strong hand of the Law would be with dif culty avoided by the evil doer; and thers would be reason to expect an impartial ad- ministration of justice,
offer the foregoing as little more than auggestions.
The influence of the foreign Custom's employés and non-ju. dicial Consular Officers should prove ample to prevent any serious wrong being done the foreigner at a port, and a sense of res ponsibility, it is to be hoped, might lead the native official to take more impartial viows of matters than the present systum."
The Gazette says that it believes the subject has long been under the an
xious consideration of the British Minis- tor," to which we can only add the expression of our sincers hope that action EET on the first day of the weak at 11
